When I think about things that bother me of late, I am easily reminded of those who have struggled with far more than I have ever been asked to carry. It is that that can help me through the things that I come up against. I am feeling a bit unsteady tonight because I feel down. But I will be fine. I am feeling this way because I feel put upon by my ex and my family and my job. I feel as though everything is weighing down on me and I have no real avenue to find a moments peace. But really, I am allowing things to overwhelm me, that is all. If i step back and take things one at a time and really examine them, then I can cope much better. It is the letting one thing pile on top of another thing and another thing that makes me feel this way. My plans this year require a lot of careful maneuvering, and I am very focused. It means taking advantage of every day, asking myself whether I achieved a part of my bigger picture as the days quickly fade to the past.
